Jeremiah 11:7-9

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁷ For I solemnly warned your ancestors when I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, warning them persistently, even to this day, saying, Obey my voice. ⁸ Yet they did not obey or incline their ear, but everyone walked in the stubbornness of an evil will. So I brought upon them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do, but they did not.

⁹ And the Lord said to me: Conspiracy exists among the people of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.
